2591. It was narrated that Thawbân said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Whoever can promise me one thing, Paradise will be his.'" (One of the narrators) Yahya said: "Here a statement which means: That he will not ask the people for anything." (Sahîh)
2590 - أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ يَضْمَنْ لِي وَاحِدَةً وَلَهُ الْجَنَّةُ» قَالَ يَحْيَى: هَاهُنَا كَلِمَةٌ مَعْنَاهَا أَنْ لَا يَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ شَيْئًا

The promise of Paradise is not an ordinary matter. But the prerequisite of not asking anything of anyone is also a very hard thing. The courage, restraint, and reliance (on Allâh) required for it is not a task which is easily accomplished. Such people are extremely rare to find.
